Hey there,

I bought a Sound Card (ASUS Xonar D1, 7.1 Surround Sound) after I bought the Razer Tiamat 7.1 Headphones. So I installed the latest drivers and tested the Sound Card. Everything seemed fine up until I join a Teamspeak server and people said that mu microphone is making odd noises. They say it sounds like a motorcycle or sometimes an electrical razer.

The mic never made the noises when I used it on the onboard sound card, and I re-tested it just to confirm.

-I have tried uninstalling previous sound drivers
-Tried disabling them
-Installed the ASUS sound card drivers from a fresh PC format
-Tried a different PCI slot
-I even tried plugging the mic into my onboard sound card, and the 7.1 speakers into the Xonar D1 card

Any ideas if the card might be faulty or if the problem might be somewhere else?

on my old case, it was the front panel connector that was too close of the motherboard, GPU and picking interferences from them, moving the front panel audio cable (HD audio cable) away and alone resolve the issue with an Antec 900

When you replug your onboard, the cable is surely on the bottom of the motherboard, far away from the gpu so it's not making interferences...
